awe... neat. I began work today at 9am and it's now 10:05pm and I still have so much I want/need to do... I am the only one still at the office. I just thought I'd look at your blog as a quick break. You and Diana's websites are my quick breaks. That and checking my e-mail. Debating whether or not to keep working or go home at this point. Tommorow is probably going to be an equally long day. So much to do before leaving for xmas break! I'm totally making this comment into my own post...haha...

Did I ever tell you how terrifying these pictures are to me?? They still haunt me; I think about them and I thought about them today: I would be SO SCARED to face a classroom of students! You are amazing -- this is truly a talent and a gift to be able to teach. I would curl up in a ball and die. You are so brave and I also admire that you tried this and found out how much you love it and are good at it!
